Default Turbo s2k VS Upgraded Evo 8

Hey guys after racing my car at the track all day i encountered this White evo 8
on the highway and decided to see what it can do.
When i tell you this thing was a Monster it was just that, Jesus that thing hauled ass. A friend of mine found out that he was running a built motor and putting down 490 awhp.
The guy was pretty cool after the races were over he gave me a thumbs up and we both laughed about the trooper that ALMOST!!! Clocked both of us.
Only thing that sucked was that we never lined up He always took off first.
And it never occurred to me to switch to high boost! And the top was down I was SO shocked that he was that fast lol. VERY nice looking Evo
Well you'll see, sorry for the short film but its better then nothing.
Enjoy!!

Marcus,

I have seen you race specops and soul coughing with your high boost on and in my opinion, if you were high boost you would have walked him. He did not pull on you in low boost like you pulled the others on high boost. Cool video, wish you would make more. Love to hear the sound of your car

You Aminal you... lol.

Nice run man. Why wouldn't he line up though? That's cheating pretty much.

yeah, marcus's car is just a freakin beast on high boost. To think his low boost is basically equivalent to my high-boost, and whenever he wants, he can just up it, gets me wanting to throw more money at my car! http://youtube.com/watch?v=aFXCaaQkX_0

All I can say is who needs a nitrous "go go" button when you have a high boost switch! Keep the vids coming guys...Makes me wonder if I will be satisfied with a Kraftwerks high boost kit.
